Jack Frusciante

Bologna, 1992. Alex D., diciassette anni, figlio modello della buona borghesia, decide di "uscire dal gruppo", di rompere gli schemi, di fare un "salto" fuori dal "cerchio che ci hanno disegnato attorno". In una parola, cresce. Lo fa attraverso le pedalate disperate su in collina, la musica furibonda dei Sex Pistols e dei Red Hot Chili Peppers, l'amore di Adelaide, la sofferenza per la perdita dell'amico Martino Senza gesti eclatanti, Alex volta le spalle a tutto e a tutti, in nome di un presente libero e felice, di una umanissima richiesta di autenticità.

Mother's Milk is the fourth studio album by the American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, released on August 16, 1989, on EMI Records. After the death of founding guitarist Hillel Slovak and subsequent departure of drummer Jack Irons, vocalist Anthony Kiedis and bassist Flea regrouped with the addition of guitarist John Frusciante and drummer Chad Smith. Frusciante's influence altered the band's sound by placing more emphasis on melody than rhythm, which had dominated the band's previous material. Returning producer Michael Beinhorn favored heavy metal guitar riffs as well as overdubbing that was perceived by Frusciante as excessive, and as a result Beinhorn and Frusciante constantly fought over the album's guitar sound.

The Uplift Mofo Party Plan is the third studio album by American rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, released on September 29, 1987 on EMI Records.

The record features the band's signature funk rock musical style, but also draws influences from reggae and heavy metal.
